I can see your point of view. If Peterborough could move in some temp grandstands etc it would be a great venue, that is the thing that let's it down. Of course it would be the EOES who got the money for the hiring of the venue though ............
That was great, proud to be a supporter of those british boys racing tonight, what a fantastic, committed display, first class and here's to Rob as manager too, who obviously got them together as a team, just brilliant
I did hear the meeting advertised on KLFM if that's what u mean, haven't seen an ad on the BBC though
Our promotion gains through IMG hiring the stadium, which of course the EL clubs miss out on tis true.
Nothing to do with us fans which league our stadium owners/promoters choose to run their team in is it!!
Can't be helped, just enjoy the racing of the riders who are in it .................. Emil apart it ain't going to be many years before all the rest are retired anyways.
Exactly!! If TeamGB don't do well at Lynn then they won't do well in the race off and final surely? They all used to ride Lynn really well, what's changed?
Agreed on your first point, huge congratulations to Chris Gollob said on SKY that he'll try to win Cardiff next year so that doesn't sound like he has any intentions of giving up just yet ......
Good meeting, track was good in that it didn't become dangerous, didn't agreed with the Pedersen/Watt refereeing decision, the build up of muck near the fencing that is never cleared didn't help Watt, they need a few people with hand rakes to get rid of that! Was the track watered at all during the night?
Was it as hot inside the stadium as it was outside?
So when will the fans get to know whether the riders are gonna boycott this meeting or not????
I think someone needs to be giving us some answers, not least the promoters!!!!
Plenty of giveaways up for grabs in local newspapers at the mo ........... lol

INTERESTING RACING ............... if you think riders coming to grief and suffering all sorts of injuries is interesting racing ............ hmmmmmmm
Of course they couldn't do anything about the rut at Torun because of the tv schedules!! Having said that I don't suppose too much could be done anyways, even if material was compacted into the rut it would be softer than the rest??
The finish line filming has always eluded SKY, I'd like to know what the problem is, WHY can't they have a camera positioned straight along the start, perhaps not attached to the starting gates because of the jolting as the tapes rise perhaps but there has to be a way of getting a straight shot of the finish line, reposition that bleeding mole cam perhaps?
lol
Spose it's seen as summat special at SKY for an F1 driver to lower themselves to watch a simple speedway meeting .............. especially given he had to fly his own plane there! Now let's see if Jason gets a mention when he's seen in Mark's pit at one of the F1 races I bet Jason could make a better fist of Mark's job than vice versa, but look who earns most dosh ........... I know which sport I'd rather watch as a spectator though and fan of my local club
